Of Demons and Heroes

This is only a partial fan-fic. So, there is not an entire book about just One Direction here... Hi, my name is Lusetta.... but you might know me better as Black Shadow or Demon Bite... and I'm half demon... welcome to my world. I'm going to have some crazy things going on in my life so stay close, stay safe, and stay alive...now that that's out of the way... Let's go!

16. The Loss

I stabbed and parried and thrusted and blocked, trying to gain the upper hand. But, nothing was working. It was like fighting and army of thousands, which was very possible, with only one tank. I looked back, making sure everyone had stayed in the car so far. They had. I had told them to stay in there until I said otherwise, which none of them liked, but they reluctantly did. I snapped around just as a demon went to stab at my leg. I growled and bit at his exposed neck, missing by only mere inches. The demon recoiled and stabbed at my head while another stabbed at my thigh. I tried to dodge, but ended up with a large cut along my inner thigh and a small cut along my cheek. I pulled back, trying not to show how badly I was hurt, and bumped into the car... which was open! "I thought I told you to stay in the car!" I yelled as I saw Zayn come up beside me. He only smiled charmingly and winked while saying, "It's not like me to sit on the sidelines very often..." I laughed involuntarily and kept on.

We were finally down to two or three demons, closing in on them like a pack of wolves. I stabbed at one, causing him to hiss. I growled in return and he cowered before me. "Go! Go and never return, demon. You belong in the depths with your maker..." They nodded and warped out, surely going to tell their master. "Well, that was--" Zayn stopped mid sentence. I looked back to see him falling, heading towards the ground at a rapid pace. I ran, barely catching him before he hit the ground, and laid him on his stomach. My eyes widened as I looked to see a black arrow dissolving into his back. I pulled before it could fully dissolve and threw it aside. "Don't touch it. You're human and that's an arrow that with the slightest touch could kill you..." I trailed off as I tried to heal his back. "Lu....? It's not gonna work this time... You've got to let me go..." He pulled me down and kissed me one last time before he exhaled his last breath and his life ended...
